Lustron House of Americus, Georgia
In Americus, Georgia, there is one extant Lustron House. There are less than 20 remaining in the state. Lustrons are prefabricated metal houses designed by Carl Strandlund. In 1946, the federal government provided $15 million in emergency loans to help build new homes for returning GIs from World War II. Strandlund purchased a factory in Columbus, OH, and later secured an additional $25 million in loans. Despite producing around 3,000 Lustrons, the federal government repossessed the company in February 1950, and Strandlund was forced to declare bankruptcy later that year.
